The members of our Linda A. Karr Cuddle Blanket group have been working hard all year long to create over 200 beautiful quilts to be given away to the needed children who attend Camp Ramapo. All are invited to join them at the giveaways at Ramapo. It’s an experience you won’t soon forget. This summer’s giveaways will be held at Ramapo at 6:30 pm on July 7, July 28, and August 18.

For more than 30 years, the Summer Youth Conference has provided teens in the Diocese of New York with a spiritual retreat in a summer camp setting.

Registration forms with contact information are on the bulletin board in the Parish Hall.
